SPRAYS/SHEAVES
Set against a bright white background, this elongated sympathy spray unfolds like a quiet, graceful gesture of farewell. The arrangement is shaped in a flowing, tapering form, widest at the centre and narrowing gently to each end, evoking the soft line of a teardrop. Deep red roses, some in tight buds and others open to reveal layers of velvety petals, create an intense core of colour, joined by bold red gerbera daisies with dark centres and clusters of frilled red carnations that lend a gentle, cloud-like texture. Between these passionate reds, lime green chrysanthemum pompons glow with almost neon clarity, their compact rounded heads bringing a modern brightness and a fresh, living energy to the tribute. Small white filler blooms, reminiscent of tiny daisies or gypsophila, are scattered with a light hand, softening the contrasts and adding a sense of air and space. The flowers rest on a generous bed of greenery: glossy dark green leaves like salal, delicately cut fern fronds, and a variety of textured foliage that stretches outward, especially toward the lower right where slim, elongated leaves fan elegantly to accentuate the spray's movement. At the upper left, a bundled cluster of tall, straight green stems is wrapped at the base with a single broad leaf, creating a contemporary sculptural feature that lifts the design. The overall effect is tranquil, respectful, and quietly emotive, a fitting funeral spray for services in Erith, whether being delivered to a local church near the town centre or to the crematorium, offering comfort and a sense of thoughtful craftsmanship.

£200.00
A graceful teardrop funeral spray rests against a crisp white background, composed with the quiet care of a local Erith florist who understands how flowers speak when words fall short. The eye is first drawn to the large white lilies, some fully open with broad, gently arched petals, others still in smooth, tapered buds. Their surfaces look almost satiny, catching soft, even light, while the central stamens add a subtle golden tone that warms the arrangement. Weaving through and around these lilies are sprays of white lisianthus, their bell-shaped blooms tinged with delicate lavender along the petal edges, each fluted fold adding texture and movement. Numerous tiny buds are tucked between them, giving a sense of depth and a promise of continuing bloom. Surrounding this core of white and soft purple is a thoughtfully structured mass of greenery: bold, dark leaves create a deep backdrop, while slender palm-like fronds extend outward, especially towards one side, echoing the elongated, diagonal line of the design. A few leaves have been carefully rolled and looped, like small green ribbons, lending a modern, sculptural touch. The overall effect is a flowing form that feels as if it could be laid along a casket in a church near Erith town centre, placed beside a photo at a Hall Place memorial, or sent as a sympathy sheaf to a family home. The colours, textures, and gentle asymmetry combine to convey respect, calm, and a tender farewell, perfect for expressing condolences with understated elegance.
SERENITY SPRAY
£75.00
Set against a crisp white background, this large red funeral spray stretches in a gentle diagonal, full and rounded at the top left and gradually narrowing to a soft, trailing point at the lower right. The eye is drawn first to the deep red roses that anchor the design, their velvety petals layered in tight spirals and open cups, each bloom seeming to hold a private memory. Interspersed among them are clusters of red carnations and spray carnations, their fringed, ruffled petals creating a tapestry of texture, from densely packed centers to looser outer edges. Together, the roses and carnations form a rich field of red, expressing respect, devotion, and a quiet intensity of feeling that suits a funeral or remembrance service. Around this core of flowers, lush greenery provides a calm, grounding frame. Wide, dark green leaves create a strong outline and give the spray its teardrop shape, while softer, silvery eucalyptus leaves add muted tones and round shapes that break up the intensity of the red. From the lower edge and down the right-hand side, finer sprigs of pale green foliage fall away in gentle lines, echoing the natural cascade of a river flowing towards the Thames by Erith Pier. The design suggests a casket spray or large sympathy tribute, thoughtfully made by an experienced local florist who understands how families in Erith might want to honour a loved one. There is a stillness and quiet grace to the arrangement, as if it were meant to rest peacefully on a casket or at the front of a chapel, speaking softly of remembrance without the need for words.
DEEP AFFECTION CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY SPRAY £300
£300.00
A graceful sympathy sheaf stretches diagonally across a clean white backdrop, its shape echoing a gentle crescent as it moves from upper left to lower right. At the heart of the design, dramatic Stargazer lilies unfurl in shades of deep fuchsia and rose-pink, speckled with burgundy and edged in crisp white, their long stamens and pollen-rich anthers adding subtle detail. Partially closed lily buds, brushed with soft green and blush pink, hint at beauty still emerging. Around them, bright magenta gerbera daisies bring a vivid, contemporary energy, while clusters of creamy white roses and fluffy white carnations soften the palette, introducing a sense of calm and purity. Fine white filler flowers, like miniature daisies, are threaded through the design, breaking up the colour blocks and adding a gentle, airy texture. The flowers are supported by a generous framework of foliage: broad, dark green leaves form a structured base, feathery fern fronds contribute movement, and long, slender leaves stream outward to create a cascading tail that draws the eye downward. The stems are neatly bound at the top, showing the craftsmanship typical of an experienced local florist accustomed to preparing tributes for services in and around Erith, from quiet churchyards to crematoria near the riverside. The overall impression is one of solemn beauty and quiet hope, with the vivid pinks suggesting cherished memories and the whites symbolising peace. This arrangement would feel entirely at home resting beside a photo of a loved one, offering comfort and a tender farewell from friends and family in the Erith community.
SPECIAL THOUGHTS SPRAY
£75.00
An elongated, teardrop-shaped funeral spray lies against a clean white backdrop, its soft tones and flowing form conveying a sense of calm, respectful farewell. The arrangement is generously filled with pink roses in varying stages of bloom, some elegantly cupped, others fully opened to reveal their many velvety petals. Their shades drift from light blush to a deeper, warm rose pink, creating a soft, romantic rhythm along the length of the spray. Threaded among them are pristine white carnations and spray carnations, their finely ruffled petals adding texture and a cloud-like lightness. The flowers rest on a structured bed of greenery: deep, glossy leaves provide a dark, steady frame, while muted, silvery eucalyptus discs peek between the blooms, adding both visual softness and the suggestion of a gentle, clean scent. Along the tapered tip and sides, slender strands of trailing foliage, likely ruscus or similar greenery, arc outward in a subtle cascade that accentuates the teardrop outline. The overall look is one of thoughtful craftsmanship and quiet grace, suited to resting atop a casket or as a focal tribute at a crematorium chapel serving Erith families. It feels like the kind of piece chosen by relatives gathering from around Northumberland Heath or Slade Green, wishing to send a final message of affection and gratitude. The blend of pastels, fresh greens, and flowing lines creates a serene floral tribute that speaks softly when words are difficult to find.
IN YOUR HONOUR CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A refined white and green sympathy spray is photographed on a stark white background, drawing full attention to its graceful, elongated form. The arrangement begins with a cluster of large white lilies at its centre, some fully unfolded so that their velvety petals and pale pistils are clearly visible, others still in tapered buds, adding a sense of quiet continuity. Around the lilies, soft white roses and fluffy carnations are carefully layered, their petals overlapping like delicate fabric, while white Gerbera-style blooms with subtle yellow or cream centres bring a touch of brightness and openness to the design. Fine, starry filler flowers weave between the main stems, filling any gaps and giving an airy, almost mist-like effect. The spray is firmly anchored by deep green foliage: broad, polished leaves offer a rich backdrop, light feathery ferns soften the outline, and round eucalyptus leaves add a cooler, silvery tone. Neatly folded long leaves create a structured vertical line at the top, suggesting order and composure. From the lower right corner, long palm fronds fan out in a gentle arc, giving the piece its distinct asymmetrical profile and sense of gentle motion, as if the flowers are quietly drifting. The white blooms and layered greenery together speak of respect, serenity, and remembrance, making this an appropriate tribute for funeral services, wakes, or graveside farewells in Erith. Whether resting in a chapel near Erith town centre or travelling with the cortege along familiar local streets, the tribute's soothing palette and careful balance are designed to honour a life with dignity.
SIMPLICITY SPRAY
£75.00
This elegant sympathy spray evokes a gentle sense of farewell, mirroring the tranquil spirit of Erith's riverside walks. The composition streams diagonally on a bright white background, anchored by regal white lilies, some in full, fragrant bloom while others remain as pure, closed buds-each symbolising both cherished memory and quiet hope. Blushes of deep pink and fuchsia roses nestle between the lilies, their soft velvet petals unfolding to offer comfort and solace. Subtle rounds of white spray carnations fill the spaces, creating a delicate, ruffled texture that mirrors the softness of Erith's morning mist. Sprightly green santini chrysanthemums add a fresh and playful lift to the arrangement, with moss-like spheres providing a contemporary twist. Here and there, bright red hypericum berries pop with cheery colour, contrasting beautifully with the lush tapestry of greenery and conjuring a sense of natural vitality. Rich, dark green leaves-some artistically folded, others gently arching-pair with slender, palm-like fronds cascading along the design's right edge, echoing the gentle sway of local trees in the breeze. Each flower and leaf has been thoughtfully placed, creating a seamless balance of colour, light, and emotion, reflective of the caring hands at work in Florist Erith's studio. Crafted for moments of tribute, this arrangement is a heartfelt expression of sympathy and remembrance, nuanced and beautiful-an ideal gesture for farewells or as a floral symbol of enduring respect in Erith and neighbouring communities.

GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
£90.00
Displayed against a bright white background, this elegant funeral spray appears as though it has just been carefully finished on the bench of an experienced Erith florist, ready to be delivered to a local chapel or crematorium. The arrangement has a horizontal, elongated form, rising into a lush, rounded mound on the left, then tapering gently into a slender, flowing tip on the right, suggesting a subtle sense of direction and farewell. At its heart are rich, deep red roses, their velvety petals tightly furled and full of depth, placed thoughtfully across the length of the design. Between and around them cluster soft white carnations, their layered, ruffled petals creating a cloud-like texture that makes the crimson roses appear even more intense. The interplay of red and white feels both traditional and deeply emotional, a visual expression of love, respect, and peaceful remembrance. Supporting this floral display is a generous bed of foliage: broad, dark green leaves form a strong, glossy base, while softly muted eucalyptus leaves in silvery green thread through the blooms, adding cool highlights and a hint of fresh, herbal scent. From the right-hand side, delicate tendrils of lighter greenery trail outward, giving the spray a gentle, cascading movement, as if it were flowing towards a final resting place in a quiet corner of Erith Cemetery or a churchyard near the riverside. The overall look is polished yet natural, the kind of sympathy tribute chosen by families across Erith who want a composed, graceful floral message that honours a loved one's life and offers comfort during the service and beyond.
FOREVER BELOVED CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
An elongated sympathy spray of deep red roses and berries rests at a diagonal against a pristine white background, giving the flowers the quiet prominence they deserve. Along the centre line of the design, velvety red roses are arranged in a flowing sequence, from small, tight buds to softly opening blooms and fuller, mature flowers, each one layered with petals that suggest enduring love and remembrance. Between the roses, clusters of pinkish-red Hypericum berries add a lighter, almost coral note, their rounded forms and subtle sheen bringing a gentle sparkle and textural contrast. Beneath and around this central band of colour, a rich bed of greenery unfolds: broad, glossy dark green leaves create a secure, almost sculptural base, while airy palm fronds and fine, linear foliage reach outwards and downwards, stretching the spray into a refined, tapering silhouette. The mix of dark and bright greens evokes the calm of nearby Erith parks and riverside walks, grounding the arrangement in a sense of natural peace. At the uppermost end, the stems are neatly bound with a smooth wrap of folded green leaf, forming a tidy handle that hints at the skill of the florist who composed it. The overall effect is both traditional and contemporary, with clean lines, clear contrast, and a dignified presence that would sit beautifully on a casket or as a principal tribute at a memorial service in Erith. It conveys a message of deep respect, quiet sorrow, and a love that remains steadfast even in parting.
EVERLASTING LIGHT SPRAY
£75.00
Set against a spotless white background, this refined funeral spray stretches diagonally like a gentle, flowering stream, wide and full at the upper left and tapering to a graceful point at the lower right. The composition is dominated by white and cream roses in many stages of bloom: some still cupped and shy, others fully unfurled with velvety petals spiralling outward, as if opening to one last farewell. Among them, white carnations with softly frilled edges nestle closely, adding a plush, almost cushion-like texture that softens the entire design. The flowers are supported by a lush framework of greenery, with smooth, muted eucalyptus leaves adding a cool, silvery tone and darker, glossy foliage creating depth beneath. Trailing stems of ruscus and other slender greens arc and fall from the narrow end of the spray, emphasising its teardrop silhouette and suggesting a gentle downward flow, reminiscent of quiet walks through Erith's riverside gardens and green spaces. The neutral background and calm lighting keep the focus entirely on the interplay of white blooms and rich foliage, evoking a mood of serenity and reverence. This type of floral tribute, often seen resting by a casket or displayed near the front of a chapel, feels like a thoughtful expression of sympathy from a caring Erith florist-something chosen to honour a life with grace, to comfort grieving families, and to bring a sense of calm and purity to a funeral or memorial gathering.
DIVINE GRACE CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
HEAVENS LIGHT SPRAY
HEAVEN'S LIGHT SPRAY
£70.00
Set against a clean white backdrop, this elegant pink sympathy spray appears as a softly elongated teardrop, the flowers gathered most densely at the top left and then gradually tapering to a graceful point. The design is composed primarily of delicate pink roses, some fully open with lush, spiralling petals, others still in tighter buds that hint at memories cherished but not forgotten. Nestled between them are numerous light peach-pink and blush carnations, their ruffled, cloud-like petals adding depth and a gentle, almost feathery texture. The pastel blooms form a continuous carpet of soft colour, ranging from barely-there powder pink to muted rose, conveying serenity rather than drama. Around this floral core, an abundance of deep green foliage creates contrast and structure: broad, polished leaves frame the outer edges, while finer, more slender greenery extends slightly beyond the flowers, especially along the lower right side, giving the piece a subtle sense of movement, as though it is quietly bowing in respect. Imagined as crafted by an experienced florist in Erith, the arrangement feels fresh and thoughtfully balanced, suited for a funeral chapel, church service, or crematorium along the Thames. The white background emphasises the tranquillity of the design, allowing each petal and leaf to stand out with clarity. This is not a loud or elaborate tribute, but a composed, heartfelt expression of sympathy, ideal for those wishing to send a message of gentle support to grieving families in and around Erith, from Northumberland Heath to the quieter residential streets bordering local parks and churches.

PINK ROSES
PINK ROSES SERVICE ARRANGEMENT
£90.00
A luxurious red sympathy spray stretches diagonally across a clean white background, shaped in a graceful crescent that widens at the centre then narrows to a soft point. The entire composition is dominated by rich shades of red, creating a powerful and solemn presence. At the core, velvety red roses nestle together, some tightly cupped, others fully opened to reveal their intricate spirals, symbolising enduring love and farewell. They are intertwined with clusters of deep red carnations, their frilled petals forming soft, rounded mounds of colour that give the design a plush, comforting feel. Interspersed throughout are striking red gerbera daisies, their wide, flat faces radiating petals around darker centres, like small suns of memory and devotion. Tiny tufts of white filler flowers glint gently between the larger blooms, breaking up the red and adding light and dimension. Encircling this sea of blooms are long palm fronds and fern-like greens that arc outward from the base and sides, giving the spray structure and a sense of gentle movement. Dense, darker green foliage sits closer to the flowers, creating a lush backdrop that makes every red petal appear even deeper and more vivid. A glossy red satin ribbon bow crowns the top centre, its long tails flowing gracefully through the arrangement. This dignified funeral spray, suitable for casket display or a standing tribute, feels at home in Erith's churches and crematorium chapels, offering a heartfelt, formal goodbye for families gathering from Northumberland Heath to the riverside and beyond.

£120.00
SINCERITY SPRAY
SINCERITY SPRAY
£70.00
A dignified funeral spray is laid out horizontally against a clean white background, its form echoing the gentle curve of a river as it narrows into the distance. The arrangement is densely packed, creating a rich tapestry of colour and texture that draws the eye from one end to the other. At its heart, dramatic red stargazer and Oriental-style lilies open wide, their star-shaped petals and darker speckles conveying both intensity and reverence. Around them, layers of cream, white, and soft pink roses unfurl at different stages, from shy buds to generous blooms, like memories surfacing over time. Light pink carnations with softly frilled edges intermingle with white chrysanthemum sprays and small daisy heads, building a plush cushion of petals that suggests comfort and care. Here and there, cool-toned blue thistles and fine purple filler flowers, reminiscent of the wild blooms you might glimpse along the paths near Erith's Riverside Gardens, bring contrast and depth. The entire piece is anchored by a wealth of deep green foliage, including glossy leaves and airy, fern-like greenery, which spills gently beyond the flowers and tapers with a natural, flowing line. There is no visible container, enhancing the sense that this is a complete, self-contained tribute meant to rest atop a coffin or front a service. The overall mood is one of quiet strength and soft consolation, a floral expression well suited to farewells in Erith churches and crematoriums, arranged with the sensitivity and steady hand of a local florist familiar with the community's moments of loss.
CARING THOUGHTS CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
Set against a pure white background, this asymmetrical funeral spray appears to drift diagonally from the upper left to the lower right, like a gentle farewell gesture laid across a casket or displayed beside the lectern in a quiet Erith service. The eye is drawn first to the generous gerbera daisies, some in soft pastel pink and others in bold fuchsia and magenta tones, their open faces radiating outwards with a sense of warmth and personality. Intertwined with them are elegant pink roses, their layered petals tightly coiled at the centres and gradually unfurling, giving the arrangement a refined, romantic character. Nestled among these focal blooms are clusters of fluffy white flowers-similar to small carnations or miniature chrysanthemums-that introduce a delicate ruffle and brighten the overall composition. Tiny white daisy-like filler flowers thread through the spray, creating a light, whimsical texture that feels almost like wildflowers gathered from a riverside meadow near Erith Pier. Dotted throughout, smooth red hypericum berries add unexpected pops of colour and a touch of natural structure. The flowers rest on a lush bed of foliage: broad, dark green leaves provide a strong, polished foundation; airy green fern fronds bring softness and movement; and rounded, silvery eucalyptus leaves introduce a contemporary note along with a cool, subtle fragrance. Long, tapering palm leaves sweep out from the lower right, accentuating the cascade and leading the gaze downwards. At the upper left, the neatly aligned stems are visible, showcasing the careful, hand-tied craftsmanship behind the design. This spray feels both tender and dignified, a comforting expression of sympathy suitable for funeral homes and memorial chapels throughout Erith, offering quiet support to families saying goodbye.
